Jeanette Greenwood, native of Fort Worth ,TX, CEO, storyteller, poet, filmmaker, writer and director. Jeanette started telling stories and writing them down at the age of 5. She always had a vivid imagination and loved entertaining.
She participated in performing arts throughout her years in school and college. It was in college when her instructor compared her poetry to that of Maya Angelou when she realized that she had an unique gift in writing.
Growing up in the 70's & 80's; it wasn't many people that looked like her that worked behind the scenes in the industry, so she took other career paths that her high school mentors felt made sense to them.
After obtaining three degrees that had nothing to do with her true passion, she decided to cycle back and do what she loved...STORYTELLING & FILM.
She rebranded her 11-year old NPO, in 2020 to Ladies in Film & Television and opened JG STUDIOS COMPANY full time to her clients. Jeanette is an Award Winning Writer, Director & Producer who is taking the indie industry by storm with her talent.
